Had our first hatch of india blue pea chicks yesterday. They are so funny when they first hatch learning how to use those long legs.

Very very cute! I hope to have some hatching in a couple of weeks too - I didn't have a lot of luck incubating them last year, so I'm trying broody French Cuckoo Marans, Silkie and another small hen.
 
I also had my first pea chick hatch on Thursday. I had the only pea egg with some duck eggs. I only had one duck hatch so now there is a pea chick and a duckling in the brooder. Odd bedfellows. But I'm very pleased that this pea egg hatched. I just started with peafowl last fall and this was the first egg that they had laid. I have about a dozen more in the incubator and I am hopefully awaiting good results.
